Hotels in the Gambia

Everything was perfect We hope to come back.

We had an amazing experience at Dabo house... It was just the perfect stay for my family. The rooms are large, the beds are huge and comfortable, the place is spotless, they have all the facilities you can ask for - air con, fans, mosquito nets, bins, plenty of bedding/towels... The Breakfast was included and delicious - pancakes, eggs, bread, local jams, fresh fruit, local fruit juices. With such a hearty breakfast, we skipped lunch sometimes! Salif, the caretaker is the loveliest person you can meet - he will go out of his way to do anything to make your visit comfortable.... and he is an excellent cook if you want dinner at a low cost. The beach is about a 15 minute walk and if you go just after noon, you might catch a fisherman returning with his catch - twice we bought fresh fish and had it cooked - delicious! The sandy beach is clean - we walked one way all the way to Ghanatown and the other way to Bijilo beach. Next door to the house is a bakery making fresh bread - try it! Walking distance to the shops too. The swimming pool was clean and refreshing. I cannot fault the place in any way!

😊 "Thank you so much for your warm welcome! 😊 The place is truly beautiful and clean; we felt right at home. The people are incredibly kind—Fatou, Yahya, and my Malian friend—thank you for your hospitality! 🙏"

The place is situated in a remote, quiet and peaceful spot, surrounded by trees teeming with birds and the occasional monkey. Aisha and Osman are kind and truly wonderful hosts who know how to look after their guests. Due to its location close to the airport, this place is ideal as a starting point or the final stop on a trip around The Gambia.

This is a lovely hotel with friendly staff and spacious rooms. It’s quiet and peaceful with no noise at all, making it ideal for a relaxing stay. The sunset views here are absolutely stunning and well worth experiencing. All the staff are excellent, including the driver, the cook, the waiter and the manager. Even though my flight was delayed by a day, it didn’t disrupt my schedule at all. The staff even took me to see baobab fruit and the monkeys, which was a lovely experience. One night around 10 pm, my wireless mouse ran out of battery, and the manager kindly gave me a brand-new one for free. Majula has a thoughtful, helpful team that made my stay truly enjoyable.

Everything I will come back definitely. Staff and Al team really polite.

Staff lovely. Very clean. Beds comfortable

Everyone was very helpful and friendly. A nice relaxed stay. The food was very good and I enjoyed traditional Gambian food cooked fresh. When I needed help finding the right cash point I was taken care of and was helped with a lift to the cash point. Thank you. When I left I was offered help if I needed to while staying in the country. It is a wonderful family atmosphere and a caring place to stay I would definitely stay again. Thank you to everyone who works there.

The staff are happy, energetic, helpful, and friendly. The rooms are clean and well-organized. The lush tropical plants create areas of quiet privacy. The overall architectural design (small groups of single storey rooms at the edges of wild forest land) create a peaceful area. The swimming pool is sparkling, clean, and bordered on one side by tall tropical plants; and on the other side by a sunbathing patio. There is also a partially secluded area of rooms designed specifically for guests in wheelchairs. There is soothing live Gambian music in the main restaurant in the evenings. We plan to return to Bakotu Hotel next winter!

Super friendly staff. Lovely experience overall. Great menu. Clean pool. Well maintained accommodation.

I loved everything about the Resort especially the staff. I remember Amina and Sam. It was my birthday and they all sang for me. The pool dating rooms are the best. And the jollof is so good

Wonderful breakfast. Excellent service.
